Is my skin on fire again?

Can I walk out on the ocean

With my long lost friend?

Eyes open wide all night

I’d throw a rope around the Moon

If I could turn the tide

'Cause I shake, shake, shake, shake alone

I’m shaking every night and day

Will my shake, shake, shaking ever go away?

If I can't make it out of this ditch

I better make a home of it

If I can't get down off this ledge

I better make a home of it

Better make a home of it

I better make it home

Better make it home

Is it the month of May again?

The heat seeps in my windows

And my clothes stick to my skin

If you held me close and locked the door

We could kick against the current

And hope we find a shore

'Cause I shake, shake, shake, shake alone

I’m shaking every night and day

Will my shake, shake, shaking ever go away?

If I can't make it out of this ditch

I better make a home of it

If I can't get down off this ledge

I better make a home of it

Better make a home of it

I better make it home

Better make it home

Will you shake, shake, shake, shake at home with me?

(Shake, shake, shake, shake at home with me)

Will you shake, shake, shake, shake at home with me?

(Shake, shake, shake, shake at home with me)

Will you shake, shake, shake, shake at home with me?

(Shake, shake, shake, shake at home with me)

Will you shake, shake, shake, shake at home with me?

(Shake, shake, shake, shake at home with me)

Shake at home with me?

(Shake, shake, shake, shake at home with me)

Shake at home with me?

(Shake, shake, shake, shake at home with me)

Shake at home with me

If I can't make it out of this ditch

If I can't get down off this ledge

I better make it home

Better make it home

Better make it home

Better make it home

I better make it home
